How to Report Driving on the Emergency Lane?
2 Answers
There are several methods to report driving on the emergency lane: Phone Reporting: Call 122 to report illegal use of the emergency lane. 122 is the police emergency number for traffic accidents, and it also handles various complaints, reports, and assistance inquiries. Calling this number is free, but be aware that false or frivolous reports are prohibited. When calling 122, provide concise and clear information about the incident location, time, license plate number, casualties, your name, gender, etc. Online Reporting: You can log in to the traffic violation reporting section of your local traffic authority's website or use the violation reporting app launched by the local traffic police. Remember to register on the app first, such as Hangzhou's "Uncle Police App" or Beijing's "Snap & Report App". You can also use WeChat to search for local traffic police violation reporting mini-programs, as many regions now have such WeChat mini-programs for reporting.
Seeing someone driving on the emergency lane really makes me want to report them immediately. As someone who frequently drives on the road, I understand the importance of the emergency lane—it's not for casual use. If you want to report a violation, first stop at a safe distance and avoid distractions while driving. Use your phone to clearly capture the license plate number, time, and location of the offending vehicle, and it's best to record a short video for details. Then, open the Traffic Management 12123 APP, select the violation reporting function, upload the evidence, and fill in some necessary information. If you don't have the APP, simply call the traffic police hotline 122 and provide the details clearly. I've tried it a few times, and usually, I receive feedback within a couple of days—the violator gets fined and penalized with points. The emergency lane is reserved for ambulances or vehicles with breakdowns. Occupying it recklessly can endanger lives. Reporting not only punishes wrongdoers but also protects everyone's safety. Use the APP more often—don't just wait for others to take action. Making a small contribution yourself is enough.
